It appears you manually added a few things to your xorg.conf while
this is ok to do, what you really need to do is use fglrxconfig to
generate your config file for you. This forum thread talks about how
to do this:
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=3567
But to save you the trouble here is my xorg.conf. I manually merged
the fglrxconfig output with the default to come up with a cleaner,
nicer config.

# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following commands:
#
# cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.custom
# sudo sh -c 'md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf >/var/lib/xfree86/xorg.conf.md5sum'
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

glxgears gives me: 8078 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1615.600 FPS
fgl_glxgears gives me: 1962 frames in 5.0 seconds = 392.400 FPS
Hope this helps.
